AC RMS value defined for equivalent: MCQ with Answer and Explanation

AC RMS value defined for equivalent:
A. Heating effect
B. Charge flow
C. Voltage
D. Magnetic field
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
I_rms defined so I_rms²R = average power, same heating as DC current. For sine wave: I_rms = I₀/√2. Memory tip: 'RMS: heating equivalence; use RMS for power calculations'. AC fundamentals frequently tested in competitive exams.

Kepler's Second Law of planetary motion (Law of Areas) is a direct consequence of the conservation of:
A. Total Mechanical Energy
B. Angular Momentum
C. Kinetic Energy
D. Linear Momentum

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Kepler's Second Law states that the line joining a planet to the Sun sweeps out equal areas in equal intervals of time (areal velocity is constant). Because the gravitational force is a central force (acting strictly along the radius vector), it exerts zero torque on the planet. When net torque is zero, angular momentum is strictly conserved.

Conservative force work over closed path:
A. Zero
B. Path dependent
C. Negative
D. Positive

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Conservative forces (gravity, spring): work path-independent ⇒ ∮F·dr = 0 over closed loop. Enables potential energy definition. Memory aid: 'Conservative: ∮F·dr = 0; enables energy conservation'. Mechanics foundation frequently tested in competitive exams.
